Can you bend over and touch your toes without bending your knees?

No – I’m fairly agile but I have very tight hamstrings.

Yep! I still can, but it’s a bit painful as I have arthritis in my back.

Yes. Just tried it. My right knee wanted to bend, but I didn’t let it. haha

This question sounds like some crazy question my husband would come up with to trick me into sex.

Yes.

Yes! And that’s even with my feet side-by-side. I can get my palms almost flat to the floor.

Kind of hurts but I can do it. That always surprises me, seeing as I’m so not healthy nor physically active.

Yes! I was surprised that I can.
@bkcunningham Too much information. :-)

Yes. I can palm the floor.

Yes, easily.

No palming the floor for me. 4 inches short, painful. lol

Of course I can, you young whippersnapper!

Watch this- <crack> Ouch! ;-o

Mendelbaum, Mendelbaum!

Actually, I can barely do it.

Not even close.

Barely! The back of my knees start to hurt. I found it gets easier if I do a lot of stretching first.

No. Never could. Not even when I was little girl.

You Betcha By Golly ;)

Also, I can palm the floor or I can put my hands at the back of my ankles & have my face go to my knees (looking behind myself. I do push ups by walking my hands down from that postions, during my workout, too.

I used to be able to, but I cut my fingernails short and now I miss by that much.

Yep. But really I could use a yoga class to loosen up the creaky hinges.

When I have been doing my yoga, but I have been off for a month so not today. I go back tomorrow, give me a few weeks.

Another floor palmer. Without stretching first.

Oh yeah, not recommended for convicts at shower time though :¬(

Yes, but probably not when I first get up- that’s when I feel all stiff and creaky.

Yes, probably because of this exercise – Surya Namaskar or Sun Salutation.

Yes, easily. I can do this even with my workboots on, and touch the floor under my toes without bending my knees. do those stretches so that I don’t cramp up. I’m a flexible guy.

Yes I can and do it often.

Yes and I can palm the floor. I can almost floor my palms back past my heels, but not quite. I could probably make it if I warmed up first.

I have no idea why I can do that – I’m about the least active person I know. (Though I am trying! I’m training for a 5K.)

What about you, @jca? Update us, update lady!

Yes I can.

I hyper-extend my knees so they almost go in the opposite direction, which PT therapists had told me a bad thing to do, but it’s what I do, how I stand, how I bend. When my shoes are off, I can just about palm the floor, but with big, bulky sneakers on I can just hit my toes.
